Pirate Academic Notification (PAN-ALERT) – For Faculty

Program description

Hampton University has a vested interest in students doing well in their courses. The Pirate
Academic Notification system exemplifies how the academic community rallies together to support
student success. We come together to support those who are in need of assistance and support
student learning. This intervention is only one step in the retention efforts of our student
population. PAN – ALERT is an online early intervention method that
allows faculty and educators alike to identify struggling students and connect them to college
resources.

Are there students in your classes who:

Have missed several class periods within the first few weeks of class?

Have low test grades and/or quiz?

Could use assistance with time management or study skills?

Have writing, reading, and math deficiencies?

The Pirate Academic Notification Form is designed to:

Help faculty identify at risk students early in their semester and provide academic
support

Help students address issues that interfere with their success

Refer students to appropriate college resources

Assist students in becoming academically successful

Build collaborative and productive relationships between faculty, staff and counselors
to provide an effective means of intervention that will improve student retention and success.
